Not-So-Mad Matt Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I grew up in farm country, went to trade school to be an auto mechanic, then got a degree in computer engineer.I think that's pretty common in our hobby. I am the hybrid. Like...a Prius? Or a mule ??He was thinking liger, I'd guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanopistol Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 "You know you're a Red Necky Geek if you have calculated the standard deviation AND kurtosis of your .40 S&W competition reload velocity...and have the graphs posted above your reloading bench, right next to the Duck Commander poster!" Kurtosis? I hope your sample size is large enough to warrent noting the Kurtosis, otherwise you are just living a fantacy. (OMG, I am even nerder than I thought and I don't even have a DC poster!). Of course, limit as n->infinity...but I always divide by zero and blink out of existence for a few minutes, gotta start all over when that happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericjhuber Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 You can safely file me under the geek category. One of the reasons I enjoy shooting is that it's very non-digital. It's physics, mechanics, with a bit of chemistry thrown in. I don't have to worry if the Glock is going to BSoD on me or that the Smith and Wesson is going to lose connection to the Internet. It's sort of soothing cleaning guns after shooting them or taking a Glock apart for a complete inspection and cleaning. Nothing digital. The worst I have to worry about is sending a spring into low earth orbit and like any good Glock armorer, I have spares just for that little eventuality.

sroe3 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Please notice my profile picture, featuring my daughter and her beef. She won senior showmanship in that picture even though she was only a sophomore at the time. We love our cattle and shooting sports. She shoots trap, I shoot USPSA and SC.

TerryT Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 More geek than red neck, but the slightest thing could tip the scales and I would happily spiral down into monosyllable bliss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agney5 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Love this thread, my dad comes to matches but it's a spectator sport for him. He always gives me crap though, says all of us doing or walk through look like we're larping. If that is true we are all geeks.

jayjay1 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Well, I´m German but not Bavarian, like most Germans are. I don´t wear short leather trousers, no funny hat and don´t drink beer the whole day (unfortunately). Can´t be a redneck and am to damn intelligent for being a geek. Hmmm, might be I invented geeks, because I´m German? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyD Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) Definitely I'm a huge computer geek first, but I love going hunting and shooting so Geeky red neck. I'm an eCommerce Manager / Freelance Web Developer, my car is nick named the Storm Trooper (White Kia Soul - Empire Logo in Rear Window) and I'm just an overall geek/nerd....but I rock a big beard, go deer hunting every year and have a lot of redneck skillz.
